NVIDIA's CEO Jensen Huang says he'll be more than delighted to visit Mar-a-Lago to celebrate Trump's presidential victory, but unfortunately, he hasn't been invited yet.

NVIDIA's CEO Says That Team Green Will Work With The Trump Administration On Tariff Policy, To Favor US Interests

Well, it seems like tech leaders are all now revolving around Trump in circles, given that not only will his administration play a key role in the future of US industries, but having good relations with the in-power government is always seen as a wise move. The media show personalities like Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Masayoshi Son, and many others being invited to meet with Trump in person at Mar-a-Lago, but apparently, the CEO of the US's biggest tech company hasn't seen an invitation for now.

I'd be delighted to go see him and congratulate him, and do everything we can to help this administration succeed.

When you look at how Trump's tariff policy is structured to counter the growing influence from China, it is imminent that NVIDIA will be one of the larger companies to see a massive barrier in business, given that the Chinese markets play a crucial role in Team Green's overall revenue, especially in the consumer and AI segment. With the imposition of strict tariffs, NVIDIA will witness a massive rise in consumer GPU prices, and trading with China, in general, will get a lot more complicated for the company.

Jensen was asked about the tariff policy, but he rather gave a subtle response, claiming that NVIDIA will work with the administration to favor the interests of the nation. With Trump in power, Team Green's business strategy will definitely be something to look towards, since NVIDIA's AIB partners are primarily involved in volume production in China, and tariffs will surely raise prices massively, making it difficult for the firm to sell its products in the US.

However, Trump is a huge admirer of AI and has claimed that the US will dominate this particular technology. So, the administration will indeed work to favor NVIDIA and its business, but Team Green will see a much more restrictive business in the future.
